BANGKOK (NNT) - The Prime Minister has voiced support for the use of Creat in the treatment of COVID-19 symptoms, in conjunction with Faripiravir for patients experiencing inflammation, but reminded users that the plant boosts the immune system and is not a cure.

 

Prime Minister’s Office Spokesperson Anucha Burapachaisri relayed support for Creat used in conjunction with the pharmaceutical Faripiravir from Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha.

 

The PM has alluded to research done by the Department of Thai Traditional and Alternative Medicine (DTAM). Studies into the herb found it contains Andrographolide, which in lab tests was shown to destroy viruses and bacteria.

 

Creat is commonly used to reduce fever, and inflammation and to mitigate flu symptoms, and has been listed on the nation’s general drug registry since 2016. While research is being done in Thailand to find if Creat can be used to cure COVID-19, the treatment has already been acknowledged as effective in boosting immunity and fending off COVID-19 related inflammation.

 

Anucha added that the government is seeking to encourage the export of Thai herbal remedies throughout ASEAN, to promote the category of products on the international stage, noting herbs and spices comprise a 10 billion USD market. The support is in alignment with the Prime Minister’s BCG policy.

Do they actually have the letter stating Creat cannot and will have severe reactions with Faripiravir ? Or other viral fighting drugs ? A friend of mine has HIV, and the consultants have told him not to take many plant based supplements as the HIV medication effectiveness will be reduced.

All creations great and small the good lord made them all .. quite a creator then ..

This Creat seems to be the same herb I saw called Green Chiretta in another news article on ThaiVisa today and which I know as Fa Talay Chon and use as the basis for my nightly hot toddy ( 1 cup of Fa Talay Chon tea, 1 teaspoon of honey, 1 jigger of grappa)

 

[arick]

This reminds me of last year when another leader of the best Country in the World was promoting rubbish. 

[internationalism]

this article contradicts the PM conviction. There are many more articles on the same subject, including warning from hospitals not to use it

"Thai health experts say there is no evidence the 'green chiretta' herb can prevent the novel coronavirus"

Why you use every days ? This a powerful natural medicinal for cure infections and fever, is no same a normal Tea, by prudent, in the long run it can cause kidney damage

Tomorrow perhaps our frog-kissing illustrious leader might be promoting another natural remedy involving 'Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting'.

I'm sure Shakespeare wouldn't object.

That involves a thought process and knowledge, Prayut only understands marketing.

New snake oil promoters.

Many of these herbal supplements can damage the kidney and liver.

First time I agree with the PM guess he is covering his back now since the government as been promoting  and using it in Hospitals.
Unfortunately many Thai's already believe it will cure COVID19 which is why they decide don't need a vaccine.

We dont have any Vaccines, so why not try to divert the Brown stuff from hitting the Whirly Thing a little with a Witch Doctors prescription.

Ah, but you have to remember that this herb only works in conjunction with a certain amulet, which has to be worn at specific times during the day and can only be purchased from..........

 

You get my drift.

"No no no no don't worry.  We'll get you a vaccination sooner or later.  Here!  If you get sick we'll allow you to enjoy a cup of Creat."

@Natai Beach Oh! Is this the Thai miracle drug you were planning to take instead of the Western vaccines? This one looks promising.

the thing is - doctors are warning against taking large quantities.

My wife gave me this herb as capsules. She bought it for herself but did not use it, so I have finished the bottle. Just one capsule per day. I think they have recommended many capsules per day

Then you have all the antibodies if you take Covid LOL.

Like all medicines if you abuse you have negative effects, personally I am in favor of this natural medicine and I bought some bottles in case if we have the covid to take it right away.
